MONSTERIn this gripping new edition of a true crime masterpiece, Jackson recounts the intriguing pursuit and long-awaited trial of a charismatic, monstrous psychopath. When 21-year-old Cher Elder went missing it became Detective Scott Richardson's mission to find her body and convict the man he knew was responsible before he could kill again.

NOT LOST FOREVEROn April 14, 1989, in California's idyllic Sonoma Valley, Mexican immigrant Ramón Salcido went on a rampage, killing his wife, her two younger sisters, his mother-in-law, and his wife's suspected lover. Then he slashed the throats of his three young daughters—ages four years, three years, and twenty-two months—and left them for dead in the county dump. A day later, when the children's bodies were finally discovered, three-year-old Carmina was miraculously still alive. In Not Lost Forever, Carmina Salcido recalls with clear-eyed candor, courage, and grace the horrific event and troubled childhood that followed, a remarkable young woman carries readers along on her miraculous journey of survival, discovery, and hope.

LOVE ME TO DEATHeBook only. "Welcome To My Mortuary!" Those were the words of William Lee "Cody" Neal, 43, to Angela Fite on July 5, 1998, after luring the pretty 28-year-old to the Denver, Colorado townhouse he'd turned into a den of torture and slaughter. With twisted pleasure, he showed her two dead female bodies on the floor and a third, live one--naked, gagged and bound, and spread-eagled on a mattress.

TO THE EDGE AND BACKDisplaying faith, courage, and perseverance, snowboard racer Chris Klug battled for years to have his "extreme" sport accepted in the mainstream. He rose through the World Cup ranks and won a bronze medal at the 2002 Winter Olympics less than two years after undergoing a lifesaving liver transplant. Not since Lance Armstrong's It's Not About the Bike has a stricken athlete's story been as poised to transcend the sport. To the Edge and Back will be cherished as a story of an athlete who represents the best of the human spirit.
